Get a panic error at the end of the dmesg or beginning of sysinstall. = It is hard to read what is going on, since it gets stuck in a loop and scrolling by really fast. My best guess, if I can make it out, it is a md0-related panic. I have no idea how to get this captured, so if anyone = has suggestions, please let me know. It is basically displaing the same two lines over and over. Happens with miniinst and bootonly images (I cannot boot Disk#1, see below). I can try to get a digital camera screenshot if anyone is interested, but I do not know if it will be readable. None of = the options on the menu work (APIC, non-APIC, safe, etc) =20 The interesting thing is that I have been able to install 5.2RC2 on the = same hardware by making the two boot floppies followed by an FTP install. The floppies did not exhibit this problem. Is it some difference in the = software on the floppies vs. OS? =20 2. I think this is a generic issue, not hardware related. I have not = been able to boot disk 1 on any system. I can boot the miniinst and the = bootonly disks, but disk1 is not seen as bootable. =20 System is a hp Proliant DL380-G3 with a single 3GHz processor option and = 2GB of RAM. The only hardware added is two Broadcomm fiber NICs. It is = currently running FreeBSD 4.8 perfectly, and there were no issues during the installation of 4-stable. The system also installed OpenBSD 3.4 = correctly, except that the raid controller was unsupported so we abandoned it.=20 =20 We are using the same BIOS settings that we used to get 4.8 installed. Basically default, with the following customizations: =20 Compatibility: Linux MPS Table mode: Full Table APIC Virtual floppy support (I forget the exact name, but this panics 4.8 at boot) turned off. =20 =20 =20 =20 =20 =20
